Lord Noel On The Race For Space

Whatto! Cosmonauts............ 

Apparently....... during the heat of the space race in the 1960's, the U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) decided it needed a ball point pen to write in the zero gravity confines of its space capsules..................
They set the weight of the entire NASA space Scientist team to work on solving this intergalactic problem........
After considerable research and development, they proudly announced the breakthrough they had developed............
......and the 'Astronaut Pen' was revealed to the rest of the waiting world..............
.......... at a cost of a mere $1 million U.S...................
One giant leap for mankind.........
Giving credit where it's due..............The pen worked well......

...... and also enjoyed some modest success as a novelty item back here on Earth..............
Faced with the same problem....
....... The Soviet Union.......
....... used a pencil.....


Tallyho!
